Building Solidarity Between Family Farmers and Farm Workers in Troubled Times Feb. 23, 2026

Monday, February 23, 6:00 p.m. – 7:00 p.m.
Ruth Culver Community Library
540 Water Street
Prairie du Sac

Presentation and discussion with John Peck, Family Farm Defenders. According to neo-liberal economists (and proto fascist politicians), family farmers and farm workers should have nothing in common. But that is not true, especially if one believes in broader principles of food sovereignty and global cooperation.

Family Farm Defenders has a long history of building coalitions within the labor movement, which includes organizing with farm workers and others across the entire food sector. We’ll share some of the lessons from that work, and discuss current efforts to resist deportations and counter xenophobia in Wisconsin and elsewhere.
Hosted by Indivisible Sauk Prairie and Sauk Prairie CommUNITY Acceptance Now (SP CAN).
